Double Page Spread

My double page spread will entail and interview with a star, this star will be the same person that is on my front cover - Ava Costella, I came to the decision of having an interview on my double page spread earlier on my blog due to my questionnaire.

Recently I have been thinking about my interview and what it will be like, for e.g. how formal/informal it will be, as in my questionnaire my demographic audience said they would like my magazine as a whole to my informal and formal I thought it would be best to have my interview formal and informal.

To do this I will have the questions being asked quite formal and upfront, whereas the answers will be exactly how the artist is saying it, therefore more informal.

I have written out some of my interview that I will be putting in my double page spread...

Interview

So, your new to the scene and you've already got a No1 hit - how does that feel?

'Oh god, you know what, it hasn't actually sunk in *laughs* I don't think it will for a while, but I feel as a new artist I've had so much support from the public which has helped out alot with my first single so I feel I owe a lot to them, but the fact it has managed to get to No1 in the charts just pushes me to do more'

As a new artist, we as an audience are always intriguied to know your background - So, what was your childhood like?

'Oh of course, although I do try to keep most of my personal life ''on the down low'', I do think its good as an artist to let your fans know you as a person not just a singer. And I loved my childhood, I mean, who doesn't? No work, just eat, sleep and play *laughs* I  remember as a child I always used play games that involved action, I either imagined myself doing some badass fighting or having powers - thinking about it I was quite boyish, I never really played with barbies that much-always got bored'

At what point in your life did you realise you wanted to be a singer?

'Oh thats a good question actually, I think it was when I was around 16/17, it's weird because usually artists say that they started singing from a young age and wanted to be a singer from a young age but with me I honestly never thought of singing until around the age of 16/17 and that was simply because my family and friends complimented my voice everytime I sung along to a song - I've always seen it as fate I suppose'

You write your own music, did that come naturally when you started singing or is that something you learnt?

'*laughs* You know, everytime I get talking to anyone they always mention the fact I write my own music, when in my opinion its exactly what an artist should do, I mean, I just feel if you dont write your own music its not from the heart so how do you expect your audience to believe what your saying. I've always loved writing poems and stuff, even as a child, it just comes naturally to me. And when I realised I was a good enough singer, I just automatically started to write my own songs'

Is there anyone in the industry that you dislike?
*Hmm* well I wouldn't say I disliked anyone inparticular, but I will say there are certain people I dont get along with as well as others. But its just life, your not going to get along with everyone, and in this industry you've got to put it to one side and be mature about it otherwise the press will kill you with the stories.

Well thank you Miss Costella, however we have one last question for you, when is your album coming out?

*laugh* Finally, I've been waiting for this question! My album is coming out February the 16th, it is something me and my producers have worked very hard on so I'm hoping all my fans will buy it and love it!
